FAQs about IEQc2.4 :

What qualifies as “regularly occupied spaces” for this credit? Does the total amount of regularly occupied space used for this credit have to match other credits?

We have some vacant tenant spaces. How should I account for those when documenting this credit?

Our multi-story, multi-tenant building has many different floor plans and cubical configurations. Do we need to provide section drawings and floor plans for every space in order to document Option 2: Views?

VLT x WFR calculation exceeds 0.18

I am reviewing Option 1 Path 2 (Prescriptive) for a visitor's center project. There are several private offices where the VLT x WFR value exceeds the 0.18 threshold. What is the purpose of the upper limit? ("too much" daylight / potential for glare?) There are roller shades at the windows to control glare and the user has control over the electric lights in each office; is there a way to integrate this information into the calculations to show compliance?

Yes, it's about controlling glare. Glare control is already a separate requirement, so I'm not sure that GBCI would allow the compliance method you describe.
